AWhat changed
Trained a dual visual/text encoder with contrastive alignment on a large, lightly filtered image/alt-text corpus and studied transfer and cross-modal retrieval.
Scientific scope
Trained a dual visual/text encoder with contrastive alignment on a large, lightly filtered image/alt-text corpus and studied transfer and cross-modal retrieval. Dual encoders and contrastive objectives have predecessors including contemporaneous CLIP. Delta is this specific noisy-supervision scaling study/system, not first contrastive image-text learning; corpus scale does not universally compensate for noise or license data.
